Continuation of other threads on this subject with a specific application focus.
lets just take NOAA 1.6 at 45min/150 daily, if I dive 32% at 132 ft(ppO2 1.6), in a square profile single tank dive this would take a sac of .4ish so within reason but rare.
however lets say my dive is to 132 for 3 min, and then meander back up the reef and end my dive after 45min, most of this dive would have been about 40-50ft.
assuming I want to make 4 of these dives a day for a week how do I track my CNS % because if I use the table I will be exceeding limits due to the few min at 132 and if I use my computer I will be fine.
I leave tonight for a week in Bonaire, and I am planing a few deeper air/nitrox dives.
on my first trip I tried to be aware of the cns% limit but after tracking a few dives I realised I was wasting time. and my computer never shows much of any loading even with 5 dives a day.
assuming I track as well as possible the different depths and times can I use the CNS table and calc 3 min at 130, 5 min at 90, 20 min at 50, 20 min at 40 and add them all up? or am I measuring an inch with a thumb?
